Title: Masters if the Bare Bow
Post by: Chain2 on June 28, 2018, 12:45:54 PM
I'm in the final weeks of practice for elk. I've never watched any of these. Is there one better than another to watch for the last few tweaks? Shooting a Hill style bow. Thanks Guys

I dunno.  If you're shooting good now, may not want to mess it up by trying something new.  I haven't seen no. 5, but of the first four, I like no. 3 best, but they're all worthwhile.  There is quite a bit of redundancy among them.

You'll start second guessing your technique and you might muck it all up.

I agree with what's been said, but if you feel like watching MBB, watch it.  It's very well done.  There's a lot there to enjoy and learn from other than changing your shooting style right before hunting season.  I would buy the whole series, and watch them when you feel like it.  You won't regret it.

I just finished watching them. I found them really entertaining mainly because I love watching other people's shooting styles. I kind of took little bits and pieces that I thought sounded interesting and tried to incorporate them in my shooting. It seemed to help quite a bit. Like others said though, it may get you second guessing your shot a bit so maybe hold off until after season is over.

If you are shooting a traditional bow well Chain2, you are a mentally disciplined person.  Being a mentally disciplined person, I'm sure you can handle watching a show without ruining your shot.  I really enjoy all of the Masters of Barebow and watch them just for fun.  Even though the shows rely heavily on instruction, you don't have to watch to shoot just like the Masters, just enjoy the shows and keep up the good shooting.

If you are looking for instruction I feel Vol 4 is the best. The Rod Jenkins and Joel Turner portions are probably the best available on film.

For basic shooting instruction, Volume III.  For info. on string walking, Volume V.
